Added gear requires a successful quest payment and a qualifying outcome. Quest mail alone does not count as payment.

The Sisters of the Bluff moved their spindle, and Morwen of Glenmoril went after it alone.	No added payment	No

Outcome	Change type	Target	Change
You brought Morwen of Glenmoril the Spinner's thread whole, and the Glenmoril Witches will remember it.	Faction reputation	The Glenmoril Witches	+3

With Questlines enabled, these outcomes control the added rewards. Gold multipliers apply only to gold the quest actually pays. A gear choice offers a weapon, armour and jewellery; keep one. See Quest rewards and loot for rarity, payment and online reward rules.

Previous step: Music in the Woods.

Next step: Three Stars.

Online, a failed outcome does not apply its faction-reputation penalties. Legal-standing changes and choices made during the quest are separate.

Possible quest foes

Foe	Group size
Sorcerer	1
Nightblade	3

These are the script’s possible foe groups, including conditional encounters. They are not all guaranteed to appear together; repeated attacks and ordinary dungeon enemies can add more. Follow a foe’s reference for its combat rules before choosing weapons.

Scripted gold

Payment	Base amount (gold)
Gold payment	300–600

These are the script’s unscaled payment ranges, before the outcome multiplier and any party split. A payment still requires its quest objective or branch; the listed payments are not automatically awarded together.
